Given your presumed lack of real estate experience, OPM (other than 'traditional' bank financing) is likely off the table for now. 

If it's a house, giant amenities are really table stakes in Scottsdale.

But there's a lot to like about the Portland suburbs as well, it just depends on what you are hoping to achieve, the skills or assets you bring to the table, and your timeline.

I'm seeing LOTs of FL and Smoky Mountain properties coming up for sale lately.

Speaking with other agents and friends in those markets, they're seeing investment properties going for far above appraisal value and buyers are having to bring enough cash to the table to cover the difference if they really want it.

My question is how do I bring investors to the table and have them interested in the niche.

I'm thinking of a client who is about to offer on vacation rental cabin in the mountains west of Colorado Springs, and they've got these great aspens off the deck that are blazing yellow right now.Hell, I could see three sets of photographs for the Colorado STR host who wants to go all out.

I am buying an A-Frame in Black Mountain now.

Wait tables like my 17-year-old kid does and make $1,000 a week.

I have someone who I want to pitch to be a private investor and fund a flip from start to finish.Wondering if anyone has experience doing this and would like to offer some advice.Also looking for any recommendations as far as how to ideally structure the funding for the deal.Thank you Ok so you want someone to fund it all, what do you bring to the table?
